Who Am I?

The cause of today's epidemic of inferiority complex is no great mystery. As with any faulty measurement, a negative self-concept results whenever we use faulty values, a faulty standard or both.

My Creator's Values
Man's huge importance to God is unmistakable in the Biblical worldview. At great cost and with meticulous care, God created, redeemed and is calling us back to Himself. God's focus is us —the rest is detail.
What is man that Thou dost magnify him, And that
Thou art concerned about him, (Job 7:17).

I am a unique pre-designed display of God's brilliant workmanship. He made me exactly as He designed —without mistake or accident.
"Woe to the one who quarrels with his Maker—An earthenware vessel among the vessels of earth! Will the clay say to the potter, What are you doing?' Or the thing you are making say, He has no hands'? (Isa 45:9)

Moses thought his "impediment" somehow got past his Creator, but his Lord's rebuke reminded Moses that what he thought was a flaw was His Designer's deliberate choice.
Then Moses said to the LORD, "Please, Lord, I have never been eloquent, [...] for I am slow of speech and slow of tongue." And the LORD said to him, "Who has made man's mouth? Or who makes him dumb or deaf, or seeing or blind? Is it not I, the LORD?" (Ex 4:10-11)

My Creator made man from worthless dust to show me that only His work on, in and through me gives me value. I have no reason to boast in myself as if I had I risen from some smart animal using power innate in me.
For who regards you as superior? And what do you have that you did not receive? But if you did receive it, why do you boast as if you had not received it? (1Cor 4:7).

Only the Biblical worldview builds an accurate self-worth without pride or inferiority.
I say to every man among you not to think more highly of himself than he ought to think; but to think so as to have sound judgment, as God has allotted to each a measure of faith. (Rom 12:3)

I am a one-owner being. The One who made me and the One who bought me back, after I was stolen —He rightfully owns me. I owe all to my Lord and I want to serve Him. A good Creator/Savior concept is prerequisite to a good self-concept..

The cause of today's epidemic of inferiority complex is no great mystery. As with any faulty measurement, a negative self-concept results whenever we use faulty values, a faulty standard or both.

Using secular values to measure ourselves against other people guarantees a negative self-image. Temporal values and human standards are not tools for the wise.
But when they measure themselves by themselves,
and compare themselves with themselves,
they are without understanding. (2Cor 10:12)

If we are genetic accidents that deviate from an advancing standard of beauty, brilliance or strength then our deviations from that norm are defects and we really are inferior.

But if we are unique individual designs with strengths and weakness carefully chosen by a purposeful Designer then each person is independently high in value.

Appearance, occupation and relationships do not tell who we really are —they change when we don't. Our true definition was set by our Maker's achievements —not ours.
